765 DAL / 766 LAL Under 207.0 Bookmaker.com Analysis:I have had this "UNDER" circled for the last week. The Western Conference has three teams battling for the no.8 Playoff spot, with 2 of those teams meeting tonight.
Although Dallas currently sits with only a 7% chance to make the playoffs or so, a win here would change those odds dramatically. Down 1-2 in their series to the Lakers, and still below .500 they will go all out here in a must win game. Dallas went 'over' Saturday vs. the Bulls, with the game totaling 198 points, but Nate Robinson somehow went 7/7 from 3 in that game (including a 32 footer). Bottom line, I expect Dallas to bring Playoff intensity to their game tonight.
The Lakers are in a similar situation, sitting 1/2 game back of Utah (but with Utah owning the series tiebreaker) the Lake Show needs this game. They stepped up their Defensive intensity in their last game, shutting down Sacramento i„n the 2h, and I expect a similar effort tonight.
Don't forget the last time these two met, the final was LAL 103, Dal 99, BUT the teams shot 21/43 from 3, almost 50%. I expect an even tighter Defensive Game tonight, a virtual playoff game, that the Oddsmakers have not priced like a playoff game!
